Chapter 221 It's Not What You Think

In the meantime, after being brought to the police station, Nick continued to raise his voice, demanding to see the chief.Upon learning that Nick was a member of the Lynch family, the chief hastily arrived at the scene. He listened to Nick's account and made an effort to calm him down before instructing his subordinates to initiate an investigation into Cedric.Coincidentally, Manager Josling, who had resolved matters at the bar, rushed to the police station. He overheard the chief's intention to apprehend Cedric and promptly intervened. "Chief Waymark, I strongly recommend that you refrain from getting involved in this."Chief Waymark glanced at him and asked, "What do you mean?"Manager Josling leaned in and whispered a few words into Chief Waymark's ear. The expression on Chief Waymark's face immediately changed. "Are you sure?"Manager Josling nodded. "Of course, I wouldn't joke about such matters. Just remember not to casually share what I've told you, or we'll both face dir

Chapter 222 I Was Such an Idiot

"Don't touch me!" The moment Frank grabbed her arm, Lucy instinctively pushed him away and took a few steps back, glaring at him. "I only believe what I see!"The more she looked at the panicked look on his face, the more repulsed she became. She hadn't expected Frank to do such a thing, after repeatedly using work as an excuse not to celebrate her birthday and promising her a surprise.It had become evident that he had been wearing a mask all those years when they were together.Perhaps he had agreed to marry her just to please his family, or maybe he regarded her as an easy target—someone he could wed and then carry on with his life as he saw fit. He wanted to keep up the façade at home while sleeping around outside. There was no way Lucy was going to let this slide.Her only consolation was that they hadn't been intimate in their relationship. Had they been more involved, she might have been even more disgusted by the sight. Since they grew up together, she considered

Chapter 223 Get Out

Faye didn't drink, so she drove while Cedric sat in the passenger seat, resting his chin on his hand as he stared at her.Faye felt shy and sneaked a glance at him. "Am I really that good-looking?"Cedric's lips curled into a seductive smile. "Yes, you are."At a loss for her words, Faye changed the subject, as they might not make it home safely if Cedric continued to seduce her. "How much do you know about the Lynch family?"Cedric raised an eyebrow. "What do you want to know?"Though Faye had been with Anthon in the past, her knowledge of the Lynch family was limited to Anthon's immediate family. The Lynch family was a prominent political figure, but she didn't know much about the specifics. However, she needed to gather some information about what happened earlier. "I don't know much apart from their history in politics," she said. "I heard that their family is highly influential in Eagle City, but I'm not sure about the extent of their influence here in Jeorgia."Cedric c

Chapter 224 Hesitant to Speak

Early the next morning, Faye arrived at the company and was handed the document regarding Priscilla. She quickly scanned through it, and she narrowed her eyes when she saw the word "blacklisted". Then she swiftly signed her name on it."Tell Mr. Colt to come find me when he arrives at the office," Faye said and handed the document back to Jamie.Jamie nodded and left while Faye continued to work on her tasks.Her phone displayed news about Allure Designs and Cameron, and Faye casually opened the article, feeling repulsed by Allure Designs' claims of innocence. Fortunately, Felton showed no mercy and provided indisputable evidence of their crimes. The evidence included proof of Allure Designs' misconduct over the years, along with conversation history between Cameron and Allure Designs, the transaction records of his commission, and the threats Allure Designs directed at him.Allure Designs had been taking credit for designs and using the original designs to sell counterfeit p

Chapter 225 I Should Have Never Interfered

Lincoln returned to his office and called for the managers for the PR and design departments. Once everything was arranged, it was time for lunch. He didn't have an appetite, so he returned to his room to rest instead of going to the canteen. However, memories of what happened the night before kept him awake. Last night, he could clearly tell that he was drugged. After knocking out the man who dragged Lucy, he placed the man in the room he reserved for himself. Since he was drugged, whoever did it must have a plan and would surely send a woman to his room. He got the manager to set up a camera in the room before returning to Lucy's room. Once he made sure that Lucy was fine, he planned to leave so that she could rest. To his bewilderment, Lucy had been drugged as well. Just as he was about to leave, she started tearing at her clothes on the bed, panting. Lincoln was slowly losing control. He was supposed to leave but couldn't get himself to move when he saw Lucy on

Chapter 226 I Am Quite Pleased Indeed

Lucy couldn't help but notice the irony in all this. Frank claimed he heard she hadn't returned all night and was worried about her. She knew he had only came this early in the morning to catch her with another man. The only thing he was worried about was likely that she might tell everyone what he was doing. Lucy sneered. "You seem to have impeccable sources, but I wonder where you heard it from."Outside the door, Frank continued to knock. "I felt really guilty after what happened last night! I drank a lot and went to your apartment with gifts. I wanted the entire night, but you were nowhere to be found!"Had I not called the hotel and asked, I wouldn't know that you are here. Can you please come outside? Let's talk."She sneered. "There's nothing to talk about. Leave! I'm not going out there!"Frank continued to shout, resorting to threats and intimidation, "Lucy, are you afraid to come out? Is there a man in your room? "If you don't come out, I'll call the police and re

Chapter 227 You Disgust Me

Frank sneered at her words. "What do you mean? Don't you know what you've done? You saw that I was sleeping with another woman, so you were upset! "Did you think I wouldn't find out that you found yourself a man to get back at me? You said before that you would return the favor if I cheated. "I never expected you to be so impatient to proceed with your plan!"Frank's words caused Lucy's heart to ache. She had indeed said those words before but only meant it as a warning. She had considered doing it, but when she was about to do it, she couldn't bring herself to stoop so low. She knew that she hadn't done anything wrong. She didn't love Frank and merely cared for him as a childhood friend, so she shouldn't punish herself for his mistakes. The rage she felt from the night before was because of being betrayed, so she didn't plan on doing anything to retaliate. Still, she didn't expect Frank to think she could do something like that. "Where's the evidence? Without it, your a

Chapter 228 Feel Like He Could Throw Up

Lincoln couldn't sleep.He got up from the bed and turned on his computer. He found the surveillance video of the room he reserved last night from the hotel manager. The manager was efficient and sent the full footage, which included the commotion outside the hotel room. As expected, shortly after Lincoln had placed the man into his room last night, a woman entered the room using his room key. She then began to seduce and flirt with the man inside.Although Lincoln had knocked the man out, he didn't use excessive force. So the man quickly regained consciousness, waking up as the woman tirelessly seduced him. When the woman raised her head, Lincoln was shocked to see that it was Priscilla. "She has the audacity to drug and plot against me?" he thought. Yesterday, in the private room of the bar, Faye and Cedric had given Priscilla a hard time before Lincoln kicked her out. Lincoln suspected that it was at that moment that Priscilla started scheming.Lincoln had initially

Chapter 229 Respect Your Elders

The evening sun painted the sky red. The sky was adorned with colorful clouds as the sun dawned. Since it was summer, the small park seemed to be enveloped in waves of heat, with occasional breezes carrying the irritating hot air.Facing the setting sun, Faye watched as people surrounded her mother and was about to step forward. Just then, Flora sneered. "Are you done? If you're done, step aside."The elderly woman who had been silent until now was Clint's mother, and she pounded her walking stick and pointed at Flora angrily. "What? You snatched Brown Corporation away, and now you think you can look down on us?" Have you forgotten how you begged my son to marry you in the first place? Now that you got what you want, you want to leave?""That's right, you shameless bitch! You stepped on my brother and the Brown family to climb to the top. Now that your daughter married into money, you want to get rid of my brother!"Are you sure your son-in-law is not a traitor, too? Now that

Chapter 230 Get Away From Me

Back in the hospital room, Faye spoke softly, "Mom, Cedric is almost finished with decorating the new house. I'll help you with the discharge procedures tomorrow."Flora had been staying in this hospital for more than six years because Faye couldn't take care of her. Because her health was deteriorating, staying in the hospital was the only way to ensure her well-being. No one expected the initially short stay would turn into one that lasted for six years. During this time, Flora considered the hospital almost like her home. Fortunately, Flora had some money and had access to dividends from the Brown Corporation, or she would have been chased out of the hospital for failing to pay the bills long ago. Faye felt guilty about how Flora was alone, struggling with life, while she couldn't help at all. Luckily, everything had turned out fine. Most importantly, Flora had finally regained her health, and Faye was relieved. "Sure, it's a good thing to get discharged. All there's le
